Hard to tell on photos but the walls were painted to match the background of the accent wall paper. Will try n find some before shots which I know I took and the h/o has allowed me to get some better snaps once carpet and fitted wardrobs are installed...

It was just an off the shelf textured paper-backed vinyl. The sheen was in the silver leaves which was a foil type material. any creases would show so had to handle with care. the black leaves had a suede sort of feel to them. i thought the paper looked great against the plain walls so thought i'd post. these accent walls have been popular over here for a while now.

Thanks... I say thanks because I picked it Was only about £13/$20 per roll also. (www.grahambrown.com) These big floral and damask style patterns are all the rage here at the mo. Waiting to here back on a job I've bid on hanging some gorgeous flock paper. Only ever hung the stuff once!!
